Why read it?

1 author picked Save Me a Seat as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Most of the books I’ve read by collaborators have fairly somber tones, but not Save Me A Seat. This book is laugh-out-loud funny. Joe has lived in the same town all his life. Ravi’s family recently moved from India. The boys seem to have nothing in common until they team up against the biggest bully in their class.

From Shannon's list on written by collaborators.
